Protest The Hero | Gift Horse (Official Audio)

[@lucasjharr6]

Listening to Protest The Hero is one of the best choices I've made in life. I am grateful.

[@Kit-Oni]

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite PTH tracks can't believe this is just a B-side this deserves a music video

[@Revenchist6]

Jesus this band understands dynamics more than any band I’ve can possibly think of.

[@xxitz_pr0gxx631]

Listen to Transcendence by Gorod. You're welcome.

This must've caused you physical pain to cut from the main Plimpy record. This is incredible.

[@dolantrimp1691]

From here on out I'm referring to this album as the Plimpy record.

[@Reltihliehlla]

Let's make this official. Plimpy it is.

[@nathanhunt9105]

Better than some that did make it on, maybe

[@lularoeshelbybender6017]

The council hath spoken: the album formerly known as Palimpsest shall forevermore be known as Plimpy

[@theshevanel]

LuLaRoe Shelby Bender * *The Plimpy Record* That distinction is important.

[@nathanstein8762]

The fact that you guys are able to make a banger of this caliber out of what is essentially an essay on the history of the polygraph test is absolutely insane to me

[@pawewilk9353]

Hands down best B-Side I ever heard..

[@AustinIsTheGreatest]

Wow this is one of my favorites from the whole album. should have been on it.

[@joeferguson4174]

Agreed. That chorus is SO good.

[@camdenwyeth316]

@@joeferguson4174 Seriously. Imo one of the catchiest melodies on it

[@carlosgonzalez1974]

ok guys, I've been listening to you since 2005... Thanks for everything.

[@mechnomad2572]

Божественно!!! Hello from Russia with love!!!

[@rem6741]

This has got to be one of the most underrated bands I have ever found, you guys are so good and glad I found yall. Hope you keep making music in the future

[@smlinarcik]

I just realized that the sections between the first two choruses mirror each other. It builds from the intro, through the two verse sections and into the chorus, then repeats those parts in reverse order so the intro ties directly back into the second chorus. Phenomenal arrangement.

[@Bryan-T]

I love the groove at 0:50. It's one of the best things I've ever heard. I just wish it lasted longer.

[@CirocObama619]

Hell yeah🔥🔥🔥

[@TheFatBeaRr]

Please PTH never stop composing, Metal world needs you🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@JoeLackey]

One of their greatest tracks for sure.

[@brownsworthy7323]

Brilliant! And a B-side just goes to show how good these guys are. One of the best live performances I've seen was these guys at the Manning bar in Sydney. They spent a fair bit of time mingling with the crowd before the show whilst the support acts were playing. Truly down to earth guys who enjoyed interacting with their fans.

[@drumsno]

They're the best!

[@brunorodrigues1067]

Top galera, curto muito o som de vocês. 🇧🇷 Brasil. Queremos vocês aqui PROTEST THE HERO

[@rafaelnepomuceno5681]

Fiquei muito triste que não consegui ir no show deles em 2012 aqui em São Paulo por falta de grana. Agora sabe lá quando eles voltam pra cá ;/

[@CanaldoDorf]

@@rafaelnepomuceno5681 porra nem fala, tomara que se voltarem com tour passem por aqui, palimpsest tá muito pica

[@blankoutcast]

This is one of the best songs I've heard in a while!

[@Xenophoto]

Awesome! This will serve as fine material for an encore! Cant wait to see yall live again! Palimpest was a great gift during these times of uncertainty.. long live PTH!

[@pawewilk9353]

"So tell me, what you doing there last night? " daaaym that was such a beautiful transition. And the whole build up before it. I'm speechless. I know it's my second comment in 5 minutes, but god damn. These B-Sides made my day. I have no f***in idea how you can top this record, ever. But I've been wrong before... On second thoughts F that, you don't even need to top it, I enjoyed each and every one of your albums and I will always welcome a new one with open arms. You nailed this one though. Can't wait for the live show. Wherever it is, I'll be there.

[@jeremynolan4681]

Well this was a lovely unexpected treat.

[@fredericdubrule1425]

2 new songs to add to my palimpsest playlist! Thank you guys for the best music in the world!

[@jeffreyferreira3811]

Honestly I like this more than a few songs that made the record. Just my opinion. This song seriously has balls with it's synth, funky chords, etc. I grinned like a total idiot when Rody sang "for uncontrollable factors.". I guess the intervals resonated with me. I hope this song makes the live setlist time to time.

[@Mezmer7777]

i think its just a better sing ingeneral which says a lot, its such a good album

[@robertclarke9498]

Got my pre-order package today, and I giggled with excitement like Ron Swanson seeing Lil' Sebastian.

[@boxedinboxedout]

I love the guitar and keyboard in the pre-chorus. Really gives that sense of panic of being hooked up to a polygram and told not to lie.

[@nurglematthew893]

NURGLE MATTHEW Bumpin' Protest HARD on Repeat!. 🤘😎

[@JGGuitarCovers]

How were these not on the new album?!?! Would have still only been 12 songs

[@PowerhouseMiniatures]

Sometimes when I listen to this I can burn with the purest form of rage

[@FromtheEasternLands]

That legato run after “So what were you doing there last night?” Holy smokes, fellas. Holy smokes!

[@jonw3462]

Would have been a tragedy to not have released this track. Hyped and only realised now you released tabs so gona have fun and stress with this one.

[@zestymordent5098]

It must suck to have to cut songs from the records because literally every song deserves to be on the record

[@Xenophoto]

That's a big 10-4 right there homie.

[@BushcraftBryce]

PTH could release 2 albums at a time.

[@JuggerNutzzz]

Absolutely beautiful, every track from every album from you guys has been a new favorite ❤

[@DooMedSean]

These 2 B-sides are absolutely incredible! I wish they could have stayed on the album.

[@noble_hc]

Am I the only one who reaaaaaaaaaaally love Palimpsest (Instrumentals) like very love this album more than evertyhing they did before?!?

[@PedroFinGuitar]

Nope😊

[@davidcockcroft5444]

Looked this up after Jared Dines asked peeps to name 3 songs from the band shirts they were wearing... this one dude just kept naming Protest the Hero songs/albums... Great find.... this rocks!

[@TheGodshatter]

The new stuff is quite good, but I've always enjoyed their older albums so much more

[@DooMedSean]

I did not expect to get more new tracks from them after their latest albums release. This is quite the start to my weekend!

[@BADink3D]

Can't get enough of these.....

[@jamesmarkham7489]

[@owl23452]

Wow! I think I dig these two new tracks more than the main album. Feels like it strays a bit farther from the PTH's beaten path.

[@adrianm7960]

Oh my!

[@rewy64]

So this song is about the creation of the Lie Detector in the 60's and the box of worms it created culturally? Such a fascinating concept. I can see how it doesn't quite fit the timeline of Palimpsest's concept, which is a shame, because this song is a BOP

[@boxedinboxedout]

You could say that the usage of the polygraph in law enforcement and employment is another stain on American society. Even the inventor hated what became of it.

[@bryanhenderson930]

It really is

[@gocsa]

It wasn't created in the '60s, it was first used in the '20s and the inventor died in '65.

[@AECommonThread2137]

Well, it fits to give it to us later if 2e are talking about relation to the definition of Palimpsest

[@SteveAHenning]

Incredible.. !

[@emkii1640]

An B Side Song, that shows how good the final album was, when this song is as good as the rest

[@mellowstrangler]

Holy shit, I'm so happy to see you guys are still doing this! I met you guys at Tallin something 10-12 years ago. It was a bit after Fortress was released. Anyways the place was like after a bombing... shady place with the neighbourhood crumbling looking...The Chariot was there too, and one more band... which I can't remember right now. Rody, I was the weird one wanting to exchange t-shirts with you. You had the dillinger escape plan calculating infinity shirt. You told me it was your friends shirt, so you can't trade it in :D. Anyways, rock on you glorious bastards! This song right here, it's my new favorite!
